Spotlight on Linux: SimplyMEPIS 8.5.x

WEBINAR:On-Demand

"SimplyMEPIS is a simply wonderful distribution. It was the
first to offer a complete out of the box experience all tied up in
a pretty package. It would be fair to say that it was probably the
inspiration for many of the easy-to-use distributions available
today.

"SimplyMEPIS began life as MEPIS in 2003 during a time when
Linux could still be a bit of struggle for new users to enjoy. At
that time its contemporaries were KNOPPIX, another easy distro
known for its exceptional hardware detection and
auto-configuration; and Mandrake, another easier to use distro with
a large community of friendly users. But even those lacked some of
the codecs, files, and drivers needed for full enjoyment that could
be found in MEPIS. Eight years later, it is still one of the
best."
